Caza, Arran; Rosch, David M. – Studies in Higher Education, 2014
Preparing future leaders is a long-standing priority in higher education, but doubts have been raised about whether this goal is being achieved. Pedagogical research suggests that leadership development can be improved by taking account of students' pre-existing beliefs about leadership; however, little is currently known about those beliefs. To…

Cottey, Alan – Policy Futures in Education, 2014
Knowledge here means something similar to but broader than science--it is reliable but not necessarily as systematic or explicit. A cooperative economy is contrasted with the competitive economy that has dominated political thinking almost everywhere for about half a century - the neo-liberal period. It is argued that the neo-liberal ideology and…

Amid the growing coalescence between the religion and ecology movements, the voice of Muslims who care for the earth and its people is rising.

Soydan, Tarik; Abali, Hüseyin Gürkan – Journal for Critical Education Policy Studies, 2014
In today's world characterized by increasingly effective neoliberal policies, not only the sphere of public services is being constricted but also the concept of "public service" --which traditionally has been pointing at a responsible state providing public services based on social principles and methods-- is being transformed.

Saltman, Kenneth J. – Review of Education, Pedagogy & Cultural Studies, 2014
In the United States, corporate school reform or neoliberal educational restructuring has overtaken educational policy, practice, curriculum, and nearly all aspects of educational reform.

Sturges, Keith M. – Educational Studies: Journal of the American Educational Studies Association, 2014
Using a critical ethnographic perspective, I describe how social scientists actively transition into the evaluation industry in a reform environment that is marked by increased privatization of all aspects of public education. I do this by exploring adaptations that contract evaluators use to enhance a sense of personal connection to their work…

du Preez, Petro – Compare: A Journal of Comparative and International Education, 2014
The curriculum has been proposed as a powerful means with the potential to initiate social transformation. It reflects the dominant social, economical and political discourses and for this reason it seems reasonable to situate reconciliatory discourses in relation to the curriculum. Whilst curriculum scholars mostly agree that we need to seek new…
